Dear colleagues,
Please consider submitting a paper for the Legal Bureaucracies ECAS panel organised by Maxim Bolt (Birmingham), Jessica Johnson (Birmingham) and George Karekwaivanane (Edinburgh) - details below. The deadline to submit a paper proposal is Monday 21 January!
Legal Bureaucracies: connection and disruption in and beyond the state
Short abstract: The law and the state promise continuity while also precipitating rupture. The concept of legal bureaucracies invites us to consider how people live with and through being governed, and the complex encounters involved beyond the more spectacular and explicitly performative dimensions of officialdom.
See here for long abstract and to submit paper proposal: https://www.nomadit.co.uk/ecas/ecas2019/conferencesuite.php/panels/7807?fbclid=IwAR3il5Wuga4l5a_v-lZJXjCAiSzRiJgTtV1WJjkBMluJkbcUyGDyeaS1L64
Best wishes,
Jessica
